Employee Discipline 101: Avoiding Common Pitfalls In The Process Of Taking Corrective Action


While the majority of public agencies provide due process rights to their employees, many of those agencies make mistakes that negatively impact on their ability to take appropriate corrective action in the face of misconduct and performance deficiencies. This interactive session presents challenging real-life scenarios while walking participants through a potential discipline issue from start to finish – from the time the issue is reported to the employee’s supervisor or HR department through the potential imposition of discipline. You’ll receive straightforward advice for successfully completing each element of the disciplinary process: evaluating an allegation of misconduct; investigating the allegation; deciding whether to pursue discipline against the employee, and determining what level of discipline to pursue; and taking the proper steps to properly impose the discipline; all while observing the employee’s rights.
